Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Jessica Morden and James Cartlidge

Monday 25th March 2024 Commons Chamber

[The Minister for Defence Procurement (James Cartlidge)]

I enjoyed my visit to my hon. Friend’s constituency, where we looked at a range of infrastructure and accommodation. I appreciate that she wants to see progress, but I stress that while we are engaging as closely as possible with Gosport Council on this and want to make progress, it is a complex site with significant defence events assets still in place relating to the Defence Infrastructure Organisation and the Royal Navy. I am committed to looking at what more we can do and to engaging further with her.

[Jessica Morden (Newport East) (Lab)]

Will the Secretary of State outline what steps he is taking, along with the Foreign Secretary, to support the delivery of food and medical supplies to those particularly vulnerable women?
